That's Another One For Apocalypse Bingo

That's Another One For Apocalypse Bingo is a reaction image featuring animated character Kronk (played by Patrick Warburton) from the 2000 comedy film The Emperor's New Groove. The image is typically used to describe 2020’s apocalyptic events, adding another one to the imaginary “apocalypse bingo” anytime a disaster, major world event or otherwise negative news story is released. The meme began appearing on a number of social media platforms after the 2019-2020 coronavirus pandemic around March 2020. The first meme using the reaction image was posted on March 18th, 2020, by Redditor[1] toxicpenguin9 to the r/memes sub under the title, “So we had a 5.7 earthquake in Utah this morning.” The post (seen below) received over 148,000 upvotes, 1,500 comments and numerous Reddit awards.

But can you have sex? Here are some tips for how to enjoy sex and to avoid spreading COVID-19. 1. Know how COVID-3 spreads. • You can get COVID-19 from a person who has it. • The virus can spread to people who are within about 6 feet of a person with covo-19 when that person coughs or sneezes O The virus can spread through direct contact with their saliva or mucus We still have a lot to learn about COVID-19 and sex. • covo-19 has been found in feces of people who are infected with the virus. • covo-19 has not yet been found in semen or vaginal fluid. • We know that other coronaviruses do not efficently transmit through sex. 2. Have sex with people close to you. • You are your safest sex partner. M----------- will not spread COID-19, especially if you wash your hands (and any sex toyn) with soap and water for at least 20 seconds before and after sex. • The next safest partner is someone you live with. Having close contact-including sex - with only a small circle of people helps prevent spreading COVID-19. • You should avoid close contact-including sex- with anyone outside your household. If you do have sex with others, have as few partners as possible and avoid group sex . f you usually meet your sex partners online or make a living by having sex, consider taking a break from in person dates. Video dates, sexting or chat reoms may be options for you 1. Take care during sex Kissing can easily pass COVID-19. Avoid kissing anyone who is not part of your small circle of close contacts Rimming (mouth on anus) might spread COVID-19. Virus in feces may enter your mouth. Condoms can reduce contact with saliva or feces, especialy during oral or a--- sex. 9:47 PM · Mar 22, 2020 · Twitter for iPhone 2020 APOCALYPSE BINGO MASSIVE EARTH MASS POWERFUL METEOR HYSTERIA STORMS IMPACT IN VASION ALIEN DEATH OF WIDE- FIRSTBORN SPREAD CHILDREN FAMINE NUCLEAR GL&BAL WINTER PANDLMIC DECAY MORAL ČELEBOTY DEATHS SOLAR FREE SWARMS THE DEAD ECLIPSE 12/14/20 SPACE LOCUSTS ZOMBIES ВЕСОME FALL OF CIVILI- ZATION RAGING HISTORIC WILDFIRES FL0ODS WATER TURNS TO, BLOOD MASS EXTINCTION BRINK SF WOXD WAR N VOLSANIC STOCK ERUFNON ŠTOCK MAPKET OF ANTI- WARMING PRASH CHRIST COMING GLARAL Apocalypse Bingo Science Total Technology Failure Human Experiment Gone Pl ue Robot Takeover Extinction Wrong Civil Pope Black Alien Dies Hole Invasion Earti uake War F?CE Queen Type5 SI ACE Dies Hurricane Tornado Fl od Florida Nuclear Piranhas w.' fire Asteroid Gone War 1st World Country Collapse The Anarchist Sw (ms Species Extinction Rapture Society
